Protest in Ludhiana against state-organized violence in Delhi

Thousands of people from more than a dozen organisations of industrial and agricultural workers, peasants, youth and students, etc. held a protest rally on March 10, at the Jalandhar by-pass in Ludhiana, to protest against the CAA, NRC and NPR, as well as the recent state organized violence on Muslims in Delhi.

The protestors raised slogans like “Long live the brotherhood of Hindu-Muslim-Sikh-Christian workers” and “Death to Fascism” at the rally. They also passed a resolution in support of their demands, which included that the CAA-NPR-NRC be immediately repealed, all detention centres be closed and the people detained be released, communal violence being incited be stopped and those inciting violence be arrested and punished. The resolution also demanded that all forms of attacks against those protesting, including the protesters at Shaheen Bagh, be stopped and that action be taken against those police officers involved in the attacks on students of JNU and Jamia Millia Islamia University.

Representatives of the participating organisations who addressed the rally pointed out the similarities in the 1984 massacre of Sikhs and the recent violence targeting Muslims in Delhi, to conclude that these were not “communal riots” but rather they were planned and executed by the party in power with the help of the entire state apparatus. Speakers condemned the BJP government for raising the issue of CAA/NRC/NPR to divide the people and divert their attention from the attacks on the livelihood of the workers and peasants, the privatization of public sector enterprises and vital social services such as health and education, the growing attacks on our democratic rights, etc. They condemned the attacks on the oppressed nationalities, dalits and all those who are opposed to the agenda of the rulers.

The rally called upon people of all communities, castes, religions, including women, youth, students, intellectuals, farmers and workers, to unite and fight against unjust laws and against the attacks on civil and democratic rights.

Call of the Mazdoor Ekta Committee

The all India general strike has been called to resolutely oppose the course of enriching the capitalist minority by impoverishing the toiling majority. It has been called to assert the rights that belong to workers, peasants and other toiling people who create the wealth of India.

Parties of the capitalist class claim that there is no alternative to the program of globalisation,liberalisation and privatisation. The truth is that there IS an alternative.The alternative is to reorient the economy to fulfil people’s needs instead of fulfilling capitalist greed. This is the program for the Navnirman of India.

The Report to the Fifth Congress of the Communist Ghadar Party of India, presented by Comrade Lal Singh, General Secretary of the CGPI, on behalf of its Central Committee, was discussed and adopted by the Fifth Congress of the CGPI, held in November 2016. By decision of the Fifth Congress, this report has been edited for publication.

The first part of this pamphlet is an analysis of facts and phenomena to identify and expose the real aims behind the Note Ban. The second part is devoted to a critical appraisal of the government’s claims that it will reduce inequality, corruption and terrorism. The third part is what Communist Ghadar Party believes is the real solution to these problems and the immediate program of action towards that solution.

Unite around the program to reconstitute the Indian Republic and reorient the economy to ensure prosperity and protection for all!

There is growing realisation among workers, peasants and other self-employed people that the program of liberalisation and privatisation only serves to enrich an exploiting minority at their expense. Mass resistance is growing to this anti-worker, anti-peasant and anti-national program.
